Its been a long time...

... since I've blogged!

I have been reading quite a few mummy blogs since having a baby (nearly 2 years ago now) and we are now 4 months into the next pregnancy. Everytime I read the mummy blogs I regret that I have not started a blog of my own to record things - funny moments, pictures, events, things kids say, things kids do and just general things to remind me of what I have done and what has worked vs what has not worked etc etc. I have a brain like a sieve and struggle to remember things and I DON'T want to forget the early years of having kids especially with #2 on the way and knowing how much busier life is soon to become.

So - without further ado - I shall introduce my first born, the stealer of my heart - Nixie Eve :)

Nixie is such a joy! I can not imagine, and would hate to think of, life without this gorgeous little girl. 

Being a mum has taught me so much about life in general, about myself, relationships, how I deal with things, how to be a lover of life again and be spontaneous.

I have been stretched and pulled in ways I never thought and I have cried, yelled, been angry (angrier than I have known how to deal with) but also so happy, content, loved, I've laughed till I have cried some days...

Hmmm - right now there is a little voice coming from the bedroom "mummy cuddles, mummy cuddles..." Its 845pm... she has been in bed since 7pm but happily talking quietly till now. The talking is getting louder and so is the "mummy cuddles"...

Now I have a teething sleepy toddler on my lap while I type as she is not happy. I am trying to just go with things more these days, don't stress the small stuff so much. My plans frequently go out the window these days as well as things I want to do because I have this little human who changes things ALL the time, haha. Don't stress the small stuff. I appreciate the cuddles and the fact she wants so many and I wont deny them to her as I know that someday she wont be as cuddly or want so many, that will be a terrible day!

Well, this post is getting cut short, probably a good thing as I can ramble some days! 

I'm off to bed with my little cuddle monster as I highly doubt she will go to sleep without some serious cuddles tonight.
